Story
We were contacted by our friends at Brighter Futures for Children Care Leavers Team https://brighterfuturesforchildren.org and asked to provide a special gift for new mums in their care. We came up with the idea of gifting these young mums to be with a beautiful hamper filled with lovely new baby essentials and we would love the community to get behind this campaign and help us make a real difference to these young people.
Care leavers can be very much on their own, with little family support and no-one to turn to other than the leaving care team. Growing up in care can be hard, as you miss out on many things, so when a care leaver becomes pregnant, it can be a very daunting time. The gift of a 'Welcome to the World Hamper' with beautiful and essential items which every new mum should have, will be a way of making them feel valued, and help prepare for and celebrate the birth of their child.
We are looking forward to putting these beautiful hampers together and giving them to young mums with love. You can be a part of this special project by making a donation. We would really appreciate your support.
